LIBERTEMPLE CORPS

While Pete Doherty hovers round waiting for Kate Moss to wave her Mastercard about, Carl Barat is pulling together a new band.

As yet unnamed, it features two former Libertines (Anthony Rossomando and Gary Powell) and, perhaps less predictably, Didz Hammond, out the Cooper Temple Clause. Well, we weren't expecting it. Carl internet-posted:

"You make me feel a little more alive. I am proud to announce that our new bass player is none other than the justly acclaimed Didz Hammond, formerly of the Cooper Temple Clause. He has never shown anything but love, compassion and talent from the off."

"Gary, Stantony, Didz and I have toiled day and night for a demo, and finally we have it. It is testament to the struggles of The Libertines, yet quite different. I wrote it for you, I hope it means something to you all... XXXXXXXXXXXX".


We take it that last bit is kisses, and not his ISP filtering out the word 'motherfucker'.
